    Update on my 2017 Ford Fusion

    This is the NA 2.5 Duratech engine and the 6 speed 6F35 trans. with 150K. The first parts to be changed on the car was last month when the drivers side front strut needed to be replaced. I went ahead and had the other side done as well. When it had 57K the timing chain cover started slightly...

    My 2007 Ford Fusion turned 300K today.

    The Fusion still runs great. The engine (2.3) uses about 8-10oz of oil with each 10k OCI. The head hasn't been removed, but I did change the VC gasket twice, along with a new starter 2 months ago and new injectors in November as well. The trans shifts perfect up and down, and I do change ATF...

    2007 Ford Fusion Hits 299,000 Miles

    I'll probably post a pic of the odometer in a few weeks when it makes it to 300K. Hopefully it does! LOL! Maybe a rundown of the engine maintenance and engine-trans repairs.

    Injectors replaced on my 2007 Fusion

    About three weeks ago one of the injectors electrically failed suddenly. This is the first injector I have ever had to fail. I dropped it off at a shop I have done business with and they scanned it, and it was number 3. I had him replace all 4 as the engine has 296K on it.

    I plan to drive to Maine in a few days

    It's 1300+ miles to where I'm going. This will be my 14th drive there and I normally drive the NY Thruway all the way across. I have 2 questions. 1) What condition is the Thruway in? 2) what is the toll charge from the Penn line to the Mass pike? Thanks in advance for the help.

    I usually get the 910s at WM, but haven't seen them for a few months. They had three so I bought two.

    Leaving this afternoon with 8.5 K on this oil change

    Heading out for Florida this afternoon. As many here know, I have done 10K OCIs for the last 43 years with M1 oils, however several times I have gone on long trips with 8K and above on an OC. This will be in the 2017 Fusion. I expect to have around 11K to 11.5K when I return in 2 1/2 weeks. The...

    Replaced filter in my 2017 Fusion

    This was the first time and it was bad. I started realizing the air flow was getting less so when I took it out I couldn't believe how dirty it was. Will probably change it out every 2 years in the future.

    Purchased M1 LV HP ATF

    I ordered this from O'Reiley's and picked it up yesterday. Even though this atf doesn't meet Ford's LV spec (M1 hasn't sought approval) it performs very well in my trans.

    Henry Golden Boy Evaluation

    I was asked to eval my new Henry Golden Boy 22 Mag. It took a few rounds to sight it in at 50 yards. For iron sights it is shooting fairly close patterns, at least for my abilities. The Henry pulls up very comfortably and on target. The action is the best I have ever seen. Very smooth. Solid...
